North Korea says U.S. 'declared war' warns it could shoot down U.S. bombers

Anyone who is dumb enough to think that NK would actually do this should be beaten with a stick. All this is is a whole lot of talk. IMO, Pres. Trump is goading NK to force them to spend more money and resources to counter his verbal attacks (which are FREE). He's just pushing lil Kim's buttons to get him to react, knowing full well that there is zero chance that he will actually do something aggressive towards us and a near 100% chance that he will be spending money to make it look like he would do so. All the hyperventilating about NK actually attacking anyone is just more stupidity, intellectual laziness and TDS spewing idiocy.

Even a internal coup would end up being ugly as there are no internal forces inside of North Korea supporting peaceful relations on the world stage.

The country is literally flooded with thousands of brainwashed generals who would be more than happy to carry on in place of the Rocket man.

I don't believe that this kerfuffle will end with people on both sides smiling and happy.

I believe that it will end with a lot of dead people.And most of them will be North Koreans.
 
I don't believe that North Korea will shoot down many of the USA's planes.I do believe that the USA's planes may drop a lot of bombs on North Korea.

Review your global military occupational footprint, count up your endless wars and your current shooting wars, tally up your "defense" budget.

There's why they want nukes.

Meh, pehaps we'll sell them more reactors again while we're wagging our finger at them.

The odds are seeming to tilt in that probability. The only other question then remains how many other people in the South and Japan and other places do they take with them?

There will be dead people all over that area but most of them will be in North Korea where most of the bombs will be falling.

Wait and see.

UNITED NATIONS/BEIJING/SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korea’s foreign minister said on Monday that President Donald Trump had declared war on North Korea and that Pyongyang reserves the right to take countermeasures, including shooting down U.S. bombers even if they are not in its air space.

“The whole world should clearly remember it was the U.S. who first declared war on our country,” Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho told reporters in New York.

“Since the United States declared war on our country, we will have every right to make countermeasures, including the right to shoot down United States strategic bombers even when they are not inside the airspace border of our country,” Ri said.

What a ****ing idiot. They haven't been in a war for 60 years, doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground.
 
The Korean war never "ended". An armistice was agreed to, so technically we are still at war. It just shows how big Kim thinks he is.

I think China will engineer a fall down a flight of stairs. That is the only way out. No president (except maybe Obama) can allow Kim to have deliverable hydrogen bombs that can reach the US mainland.

Another thing I wonder about:
Does the NoKo military has the physical health to operate their artillery and forces for more than a few days. Nearly everything you do in the military takes muscle and plenty of it. Artillery rounds, bush marches, digging, etc. It's hard work. Robotics hasn't reached the grunt.

Most of these NoKo troops are skin and bones other than a few elite units paraded on TV. C Rations aren't 4000 calories a day for nothing.

I told my husband, if they want to drop a nuke I hope they just drop a nuke on each other. These guys are playing chicken and thumping their chests. Trump is no better than Kim Jong Un. He only has a bigger arsenal.

The vast majority of the dead people will be North Koreans because North Korea will be bombed back into the stone age.

North Korea started this war but at the end of it there won't be one brick on top of another brick in North Korea.

Wait and see.The USA is great at building some things and blowing other things up.

We have bases in Japan. Japan is not an American colony.

Ditto Iraq.

Ditto Saudi Arabia.

Etc.

OMG, you have to be kidding. Trump didn't get us here. Every president that kicked the can down the road got us here. If you can't see that clearly, you have a huge attention problem. You seriously believe that Trump got us from 0 to nuke war in 8 months? You really think that's how it works?

:doh :doh :doh

Exactly. They recall that even if americans do not. And they probably recall that america is the only nation ever to drop nuclear weapons with the purpose of a wide spread roasting of civilian populations.
